Kolaveri Di is just a leaked part of a bigger hit, yet to be heard
Nov 23rd
Dhanush is definitely a talented actor and we’ve seen now that when he starts singing you can’t stop people from going crazy about it. Recently, this actor turned singer got down to show us what it is to go viral on Youtube. Till date we hadn’t seen many Indian videos growing this popular in such a short span of time. And if you are still wondering what I’m talking about you must be living under a rock lying in a corner of a dark cave. On a serious note, u need to check this video out before you go outside telling you haven’t heard ‘Why This Kolaveri Di‘ (means ‘Why this killer rage?’ in English) yet.
It was confirmed by Dhanush that the clip is only a leaked version of the actual song yet to be released. It was released on youtube as a video shot in the studio where it was being recorded. Music composer Anirudh, Dhanush, Shruti Hassan, Aishwarya and Sound Engineer Sivakumar can be seen in the video. The actual song will embellish the upcoming Tamil film, (3). It recorded more than 1.6 million views on Youtube in under a week, which is huge.
Let us not ignore those seven hundred plus dislikes this video scored. This is the state of pretty much every video on Youtube. Even the best video ever HAS to get a handful percentage of dislikes. Maybe there is a secret society of haters sitting wired in, who hit dislike as soon as a video is released or there are dumb people who wish they could hear something everyone is dancing to or Grammarians. Or it might simply be that the music plays so much around a person that it has passed the limit to which he can tolerate even the sweetest thing on earth. We’ll never know.
Anyway, I love the song and I gave it a thumbs up on Youtube. I wish it goes crazy viral out of the country too and gets more hits than the damned Justin Bieber’s – Baby

The Evolution of the iPod Nano
Nov 22nd
Through all these years (since the last quarter of 2005) we’ve seen a number of revisions of the most popular mp3 player Apple still sells like hot cakes. The iPod Nano released its updated 6th generation a few days back and left us bewildered with the features it mashed up in the Nano-s all along. This infographic (an old one), devoid of the updated 6th generation, clears all doubts we’ve had regarding the iPod Nano-s. The latest Nano (2011) version comes with only a software update that can be done on the older 6th generation Nano and revised prices.
The latest OS (2011) for the Nano basically comes with 16 new clock faces, improving its appeal for the ubiquitous Nano wrist straps we find all around the internet these days. Check out an older post where I covered the wrist bands (The best way to cheat in exams)
Manage and Hide desktop icons efficiently
Nov 22nd
Even after years of polishing the Windows user interface, I think Microsoft has never been able to deliver a quick way to organize/manage the clutter that builds up on your desktop. A long time back I covered a review of the BumpTop 3D desktop which was under testing at that time. It had an amazing concept rolling, but the software package (free) couldn’t deliver exactly what users would find easy for daily use. It wasn’t very intuitive in the first place. A new version of it is available and I’m yet to try it. I’ll review it when I’m done with an exhaustive test.
Fences on the other hand, a free utility by Stardock corporation is something I have found very promising all along. A perfect example of a one-trick pony application. The charm of a clean and light user interface that blends into the default Windows desktop is very pleasing. It divides your icons into separate fences (boxes). These fences can be moved, resized and arranged independently. Giving you the power to manage the icons in a very efficient manner. The color of these fences, their transparency and labels for each of them can be changed from the right click menu. You can also have icons outside these fences which arrange dynamically when you try to overlap them with a fence. On the whole the application is pretty easy to use and configure for daily desktop use.
Another great feature of this utility, I find very useful is the ‘quick hide icons‘ option. It is this can hide all your icons with a single button on your keyboard or a double click in an empty space on your desktop. Exceptions can be added in the configuration pop out. If you are using Windows and are constantly troubled by the mess on your desktop I’d suggest you install it right away. Search no more.

Tag someone with a different name on Facebook
Nov 18th
A little trick with the Open Graph ID on Facebook lets you tag anyone with a different name/word. To do this you’ll have to figure out the Open Graph ID of the person you want to be tagged. Most of the pages who do not have a custom username have their IDs in the URL of that page. See the address bar when you have the page opened.
1. Find the Number. If it isn’t there, skip to Step 2
2. If you don’t find the number there just add the “Graph.” before the URL and press enter. If done on a correct page you’ll get a page which will have the ID of that person.
3. Use this code to tag:
@@[0:[186995576381:0: Your Text Goes Here]]
Replace the number with the person/page you want to be tagged with the word. The text to be displayed can be changed to anything.
TIP: For a Blank Status use:
@[0: ]

Nvidia GeForce Graphic Cards performance Chart
Nov 15th
ATI‘s Radeon series graphic cards have a simple linear kind of naming. It’s easy to guess the performance of an ATI card by just looking at its name.
On the other hand, selecting an Nvidia card for your desktop can be a headache, thanks to their confusing naming hierarchy (used to be much better when the series went as 8600GT, 8800GT, 9800GT etc…). With the present naming system it is just impossible to make up a chart in your mind to find a rough performance of the card. This performance chart from the GeForce website could help you find the right card for your PC. Make sure to get it printed and keep it with you when you go out shopping for an Nvidia GPU.
